L. van Gaalas: rumors about me are ugly and terrible

„Manchester United“ coach Louis van Gaal denied all media reports that he was thinking about resigning and called them ugly and terrible.

Van Gaal spoke with the media on Thursday, ahead of tomorrow's FA Cup match against „Derby County“ team. When asked about reports that after losing 0:1 to „Southampton“ club he considered stepping down from the team, the Dutchman firmly stated that it is not true and criticized journalists who started talking about such a possibility.

„I don't think I have ever mentioned that. You are making up stories yourselves. And then I have to respond to them. I will not do that. It's ugly and terrible, but you can write it. This is the third time I've been fired, but I'm still here. I am obligated to do this (attend press conferences). Most people ask that disrespectfully. I always have faith. When you lose, everything gets worse. I expected that before the match with „Southampton“. Now I can't lose another match, because then I will be fired for the fourth time. Then it could be true,“ the coach said.

The team coached by Van Gaal, „United“, is currently in fifth place in the „Premier“ league.
